It sounds like your system is behaving similar to how mine does. You will likely have continued issues after rebooting unless you make a change to the window services startup for BI. Be default, both BI and CPAI services are set to start automatically. BI has to be changed to "Delayed startup"... -

Thanks for the interesting additional info. Fortunately 120sec is fine for my use case. I suppose since I'm only delaying BI service startup (AFAIK anyways, lol), maybe there is room to determine how long it has to wait... and maybe tune that 120 down a bit. -

On my street, I have one cloned camera looking for delivery vehicles driving by (3+ w/ 100msec interval). About 25' down the same street, I have an lpr cam making plates (5+ w/ 100msec interval). That same lpr cam is cloned and using combined to make people (3+ w/ 250msec interval). When a car... -

Thanks for that! Man, I tried all kinds of settings on the CPAI server startup, but setting BI service to startup delayed does seem to be working reliably. -

I too updated this morning. I still have to start/stop AI using BI settings to get AI working after a reboot, and alpr, combined, packages, and delivery work fine after that. The changes Ken just released as far as AI results selection are working much better for me. It is approaching the... -

@lukecwik & @nibblerrick, I'm using cuda 11.7 with compute 6.1 and it has been working. I am new to all this AI/cuda/compute stuff so have no clue how it works or why some versions may/may not work. -

@MikeLud1 , I just observed some alerts that should have been cancelled but went through: I'm not sure if this is a side-effect of using ,** in to confirm. It's working well for ignoring static plates though. -

Not 100% sure if it's the cause of your problem, but it appears you are running a newer nvidia driver than recommended. Refer to this post: -

Thanks for the tip... done. To follow up, shortly after my post my BI pc crashed. After reboot, I had a recurrence of an earlier problem, where AI started but BI was not properly communicating with CPAI. I went through and did what I did to fix this before: ...but this time it didn't work... -

Thanks again Mike, that seems to have done the trick now it's ignoring static plates as expected. For whatever reason lately my plate make times seem to be a lot longer than before. Like ~800msec avg, up to 1500 when it is reading a second static plate. When I test images in the cpai explorer... -

Do you recall ever installing a dell driver on it? If it still has windows that came from Dell, then it definitely could have dell drivers on it. Not that Dell doesn't make good drivers, but usually WHQL drivers are more stable and appropriate for a BI system. I personally have never setup a BI... -

I'm not one to critique how people manage their PC's, but I happened to notice the Dell directory in Program Files. That reminded me of some experiences I've had running dell auto driver updates and support tools. I wonder if there's something else lurking under the hood outside of BI/cpai that... -

@MikeLud1, I changed to those exact settings, and it appears to work, although I still have a problem with that static plate. So I'm not even sure it'll work until that parked car moves. Here is an example where BI cancels based on that same static plate at 91% (and no ocr data returned), and... -

I just tested a manual trigger with ,** added to confirm, and got no models, all red X's. I triggered it twice just to be sure. -

@MikeLud1, not sure if you caught my second post just before yours. That's unfortunate to hear it may require big changes, but you won't be pressured to hurry them along by me. I already appreciate you and the other devs going over the top to make this even work the way it does now. I have faith... -

Oh boy... guess we are lucky that parked car didn't drive off just yet. Check this one out... looks like BI didn't mark the moving plate because the static car was higher percent. This behavior makes parked cars a much bigger problem. BI definitely needs to be filtering out static vehicles here. -

Blue Iris and CodeProject.AI ALPR
I'll do that, but TBH the red X in analysis doesn't bother me much. I was just worried about plate make times going from 250 to 500msec because OCR is reading the static plates... and about sending BI the motion leading image when I told it not to. I'm thinking since static vehicles are marked... -

I just noticed a minor bug in BI lpr when using "Detect/ignore static objects". BI processes every plate in the frame, including plates on vehicles that are marked as static. This is probably a minor waste of processing power for most use cases, but I figure it's worth mentioning in hopes it... -

I just noticed some interesting behavior with lpr... you don't even need to use the license-plate model for it to work! I noticed my lpr cam having some relatively bad make times, and yesterday I learned about using alpr:0 in my non-lpr cams. I also noticed how BI logs plates appeared distinct... -

15.9GB... and same numbers for the UHD gpu: On a side note, I'm using h265, and neither gpu show any video decode activity (all cams do direct bvr+continuous). The intel gpu stays 4-5% all the time, which I presume is for BI motion. Also, that sorta high CPU usage is mostly from remote... -

Good observation, and that could be a factor. I was running just 8gb before. AI worked consistently, however there were times when multiple simultaneous triggers bogged things down, and then BI would occasionally miss a confirm. Since going to 32gb I haven't had slow downs, with very little... -

I am running license-plate, ipcam-combined, package, and delivery across various cameras... so 4 (high mode). As sort of a stress test along these lines... I can even load up default object detection on top of those 4, and it still works consistently (just slower make times as expected with the... -

The low memory idea has come up before when others reported issues using the same card I am using. Here is another data point: This is with gpu... I'm not saying a lighter version won't be of some use, but perhaps it won't fix the issues these folks are having with their gpu configs. -

I'm curious when the "always look for plates" bug will be fixed in BI. Other than that, the new lpr stuff has been working excellent for me. 9 cams and one lpr... the bug wasting a lot of gpu cycles. -

Your scenario sounds a bit different than what I dealt with... in my case the dashboard worked fine, but BI just wouldn't communicate with cpai. To fix I 1) disabled AI in BI settings, 2) stopped BI service and shutdown BI, 3) uninstalled cpai through windows, 4) deleted the cpai folder under... -

Thanks! 2 very insightful replies... I very much appreciate such comments from folks who clearly have their head wrapped around AI. The past few weeks I have gone from knowing nothing about AI to having a modest understanding of it's use and the challenges that lie in the way. Most of that... -

I saw the nodered thing, now this php thing, and there's my crappy batch script thing... I'm sensing that this is a very important application with many needles poking at it from different directions. This should be a hint to the BI devs at least. I run nodered for all my homeassistant...
